Just a simple question - I guess it is quite tough to find a publisher that "gets" CC and TOS. Some do, most don't. So maybe CreativeCommons could compile a list of publishers that really "get" it so in future authirs can select their publishers using this list to ensure they don't get stuck. jan -- Jan H Wildeboer | EMEA Open Source Affairs | Office: +49 (0)89 205071-207 Red Hat GmbH | Mobile: +49 (0)174 33 23 249 Technopark II, Haus C | Fax: +49 (0)89 205071-111 Werner-von-Siemens-Ring 11 -15 | 85630 Grasbrunn | _____________________________________________________________________ Reg.
